CVE-2010-3863

59
FAUCET Score

CVE-2010-3863 describes a directory traversal vulnerability in Apache Shiro before version 1.1.0 and JSecurity 0.9.x. This flaw allows remote attackers to bypass access restrictions by crafting URIs that are not properly canonicalized before being compared against security policies defined in shiro.ini. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 5.0, indicating a medium severity. It is easily exploitable over the network with low attack complexity and no authentication required, potentially leading to information disclosure (C:P). While not listed on the CISA KEV catalog and lacking Metasploit or Nuclei exploits, an ExploitDB entry (EDB-34952) confirms exploit code availability. Despite this, there is minimal community discussion or media coverage surrounding this decade-old vulnerability.
